Two Boarding House Keepers in Willi- mantlc in the Wilson Murder Trial. PUTNAM. March 20.-——Although the date rested yesterday in the trial of Mrs. Mary Lillian Manson on the charge of murdering Mrs. Julia Wilson. of Ashford, and the case was given ov or to the defense. the court permitted State Attorney liuntcr to put. on two additional witnesses this morning. lohn Huron and Fred M. Greene. of Willlmantlc. boarding house keepers. with whom Mrs. Manson boarded, said she introduced George, WilsonJo them as her brother. Harlin also testified that he had seen Mrs. Manson mlxluit a white powder with alcohol. and that she told him it was for Mrs. Wilson. and was the same medicine that her own mother used to take. The first witness for the defense was Coroner Bill who was called for the. purpose of showing that certain state- ments of witnesses differed. from tes— timony given by them at the. coroner‘s inquest. Dr. Frank B.‘Converse. of Asllford, said he treated Mrs. Wilson and that she was suffering from sub- acute gnstrics. Mrs. Addie ll. Pllmley. of Northford. testified that she knew Mrs. Manson and that she took care of her at one Ilem when she was sick. The wit- .nes said she learned at that time that Mrs. Manson was a victim of the iaudanum habit and that Dr. Smith. of New Haven. treated her for the sick- ness. When Mrs. Manson loft the witness‘s home'she seemed to be cured of her appetite for the drug. THE FIRST SHAD. How the Bones May be Removed and the Fish Enjoyed. The first shad of the New York mar hot in olden times did not appear hntil the short came. in the Hudson river. but the best. as well as the first shall. now come from North Carolina in the month of February. There is some prejudice against southern shad. but this North Carolina fish is considered by epicures to be equal in flavor to that caught in the Connecticut river. which according to a New England. er. is saying that it is equal to the best shed in the world. There is a. familiar rhyme which goes to show that Satan exhausted himself in filling the shad with bones; but the good cook of today completely overcomes the nrchflend' s malevolence by boning the shed before she cooks it. This is not a difficult thing to do— wlth patience and practice. All the numerous bones in this fish are attach- ed to the backbone. Order the fish- monger to drawn the fish without cut- ting through backbone. With a small boning knife draw out the fine bones that are visible and are attached to the backbone. Underneath them an- other row of small bones will be found. Continue to draw them out. keeping sible without cutting the fish or die turning the' flesh .any more than no- cessary. When these small bones on each side of the fish have been drawn out. as well as the look back- bone to which they are attached; .it will be found that the fish has hardly a bone lei‘t. After boning two or three shad II housewife will become an expert that ,she' will do the work in a short time and with little trouble. The simnlest way to cook shed is to divide it at the backbone and out each half into titres or four pieces. Season the pieces dip them In flour and lay them in a spider of steaming hot lard. When they are a rich golden brown on one side turn them on the other.

The testimony alalnlt the repeal bills at once showed that the light is to narrow down to argument over! the building of the new third rail road from Hartford to New Haven. which is be in; financed by Boston interests Judge Perkins. of Hartford continu- ed the presentation of the opposition' s. side today. calling a long list of citi- zens of the territory through which the proposed Hartford and New Haven Rn- pid Transit Company is to run. About a score of persons were heard in oppo- sition to the repeal inasmuch as it would result in the abandonment of the new road. After these witnesses. Judge Hayes, of Middletown. called a dozen Mlddlotowu citizens who were in favor of the new I'liiliil transit coni- puny and against any repeal of the law that would shut it out of business. During the morning’s testimony tween Attorney ito bins, of the New ”even read. and the attorneys for the Connecticut Western. .iud; ~ lluuks. of the committee. wished it understood that the Windsor Locks addition of this road be eliminated from the question. Mr. llobblns stated that the Consoli- dated road was pcri‘crily willing to how the extension built. Mr Freeman for the Connecticut Western sail that his company did not propose to have the New Haven road dictate as to how it should be organized or extended. and would take its own method about the suit. At noon «Ix-Representative Freeman opened the arguments against the re- peal of the. low, attacking the financial methods of the Connecticut Railway and Lighting Company. which appears for the repeal of the law. He explains all that the. present statutes safeguard the public interest as to new railroads much better than legislatures can. He claimed that the proposed repeal was entirely for the purpose of shutting out this new company. "What's your hurry?" "l promised mv husband “10"! him at i o'clock."
